The above video is from 2009 and was made by Catholic Climate Covenant during the reign of Benedict XVI but it plays as if it was made only yesterday. Be assured anytime a bureaucrat (and yes we, at Call Me Jorge..., include Francis as one) tells you he has come to help, run the other way! Often new laws and taxes are passed under the guise of a title such as; Save the Children Act, Patriot Act, or The Joy of the Gospel. You can't be against the children, the country, or the Faith can you!? When the reality is the exact opposite. Children are not saved but harmed, the country is turned into a giant panopticon for the benefit of the cryptocracy, and the Gospels are nowhere to be found in Evangelii Gaudium, in fact following the teachings in it lead one deeper under the spell of Talmudic Judaism.So what to expect from the soon to be released Global Warming Encyclical? More taxes, less freedom, more interfaith & interreligious dialogue, more financial sacrifice, more poverty, more crime, and less of the Faith. Don't worry Francis and the politicians will sell it to you with a tiny bit of guilt and a ton of emotion. All those who don't know the Faith will feel so good as they go out and do what it says. When few left believe the lie of global warming, the establishment rebrands it as climate change. Since no listens to the high priests of science these days the cryptocracy then pushes it with their man, Francis the Humble, who many sadly still see as the moral authority of the world. After all, he kisses babies, gives the handicapped spiritual hugs, and dishes out Mercy to all but 'traditionalists'.

Some of the long time readers of Call Me Jorge... may recognize this presbyter from the first Selfie Sunday entry posted. He is none other than Roderick Vonhögen, a Dutch Novus Ordo priest.

In the Novus Ordo, it's all about 'me'!

Fr. Roderick is a self-confessed science fiction / fantasy buff especially of the Star Wars and the Star Trek franchises. Like Francis, Fr. Roderick is all about the trivialities of the world. Recall, our post on Franics' latest impromptu interview concerning soccer. Vonhögen has even written a book on his love of science fiction and fantasy while touting himself as a member of the avant-garde in social media.

Vonhögen has so many social media outlets, we doubt if we found them all. There is his webpage, his twitter account #1, his twitter account #2, his facebook, his personal facebook, an instagram account, ad nauseam. Taking a cue from his fellow presbyter, Fr. Zuhl$dorf, Roderick has a tin begging cup out as well. On his patreon page, one can see that he has 81 patrons sending him $835.00 per month which works out to $10,020 per year. What is the goal of this fund raising? To help produce his four podcast shows and ultimately to make a documentary on Star Wars! Is this man a priest or a comicon enthusiast posing as one?

So how did Roderick Vonhögen get his start in social media? If you guessed Saint John Paul II you are correct! When John Paul II was sick in April 2005, Vonhögen began podcasting about the pontiff's health and one thing led to another until today, where we have the monstrosity of the Geek Priest. In addition to all his social media outlets, Roderick founded & runs Star Quest Production Network and is host of Katholiek Nederland, a public television program.

Now on to the reason for this post. The two videos below are typical of the garbage this Geek Priest churns out. Watch him invoke the Old Testament story of David and Goliath in the second video when talking of Star Wars.

***** WARNING *****Vonhögen uses God's name in vain several times in first video.St. John-Marie Vianney would be horrified at this man

"... how can we but revolt at Holocaust-denial? Victims of the Holocaust have not given us the right to forgive the perpetrators nor the Holocaust deniers ... we must transmit "never again" through Holocaust education to future generations ..."

the Vatican’s representative to the United Nations, Archbishop Bernardito Auza

“Pope Francis is bestowing the honor on Rabbi Arthur Schneier, who has worked unceasingly to promote peace and mutual understanding, in the firm conviction that respect for fundamental human rights, including religious freedom, are indispensable values for all peoples of the world to enjoy peace, security and shared prosperity. A Holocaust survivor, Rabbi Schneier has always held this conviction in his heart and made it a principle of life.”

Moscow, March 31, Interfax - President of the Conference of European Rabbis, Moscow's Chief Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt will meet with Pope Francis in Rome on April 20, the rabbi's press service told Interfax-Religion.

"An era of constructive dialogue between the Vatican and Europe has arrived. We are allies today and we deeply respect Pope Francis as a person who has played an enormous role in promoting the development of inter-faith dialogue and in establishing peaceful relations between nations and religions," Goldschmidt said, according to his press service.

"We hope that jointly we will ward off the danger of Islamic radicalism threatening Europe. We are also deeply concerned about the fate of European Jews, many of whom are leaving their homes under this threat," the rabbi said.

The talks will also deal with the role the world religions are playing in establishing diplomatic and cultural dialogue between Russia and Europe.

The Conference of European Rabbis, led by Goldschmidt, unites Jewish communities and their leaders from 40 European states.

"The worst bomb inside the Vatican is gossip," which "threatens the life of the church and the life of (the Vatican) every day," he said, because it "sows destruction" and "destroys the lives of others."

While there are many religious and laypeople in the Vatican who are "sowing good seed," the devil is still getting his way by using others "to sow weeds."

Even the pope is not immune to this temptation, he said; it's a danger "for me, too," because "the devil gives you that yearning."

So in addition to looking for the usual security threats, the pope told the security guards to also crack down on backstabbing and courageously call people out.

"Let us be grateful to God that Pope Francis has not spoken in the
manner that was expected by the media. Up to now, he expresses in all
his official homilies the beautiful Catholic doctrine."Bp. Schneider, 30 May 2014

RocketNews24 (R): All right, let’s start the taste test!0:42Cristina (C): Pretty much any chip is probably going to be good. (Eats.) This is my first time experiencing this kind of flavor, but it’s good.RocketNews24 (R): Thank you. This next one is a little spicy.C: (Eats.) Oh. Yes. Good, but definitely spicy. Water please! (Eats the next one.) I can’t even tell my mouth is still burning. (Drinks.) Okay, I’ll try another. (Eats.) Oh yeah, this is a pretty typical chip I think.R: Well this next one is pretty different.C: (Eats.) Definitely different. What is it?R: It’s wasabi.C: Ah that’s why I like it. I love wasabi. I’ll have another. (Eats.)R: Okay, last one.C: (Eats.) This is an interesting flavor. I’ll try another. (Eats.) It’s new for me. It tastes like it has onions or something.R: It’s sour cream and onion.C: It’s good. All right, here’s my ranking. Although I think you already know what my number one is. Take a guess.R: Wasabi beef?C: Oh yes. That’s number one. The spicy one is number two.
Third is the pizza one. Then the consommé one, that was my first time
trying that, so it’s number four. Then sour cream and onion, and the
classic one in last place. The wasabi one is very good, I want to come
back to Japan and have it again. Thank you!R: Thank you very much.

9:15Announcer (A): So what are your first impressions of Japan?Cristina (C): It’s a country with a wonderful culture. Everything is so organized and orderly.A: Have you tried any Japanese food?C: I’ve had sushi before in Italy, but I’m looking forward to trying the authentic Japanese version here.A: Ah, so you haven’t had any yet. Well please give it a try! We’ve also heard that you’ve been singing since you were a child.C: I’ve loved singing ever since I was little. My passion for singing gives me energy for life.A: Did your love of music have anything to do with you choosing to become a nun?C: When I decided to become a nun, it was like I was hit by
lighting. I was hit by God’s love, and it was so powerful I had to do
something to respond to it.

12:26A: We heard that at the beginning, there was some resistance against a nun singing pop music.C: Yes, I was conflicted at the beginning too, wondering if
faith and music can go hand in hand. But after working as a missionary
in Brazil for two years, I came to the realization that faith and art
can work together, that they are one in the same.A: How did you feel first appearing on The Voice?(Balloon pops.)C: I felt like that! (the pop) I was very nervous at
first. I was worried about whether everyone listening would accept the
message I was trying to convey. And when I finally ended up winning, I
don’t think it was myself that won necessarily, but rather that message I
was trying to convey to everyone instead.

23:00A: She’s cute, isn’t she!C: Thank you.A: So we heard that you’re donating the profits from this worldwide hit album of yours?C: Yes, the profits will all be used to help with the social
work that the order I belong to does, as well as future projects to help
children and families around the world.A: All right, so our last question: what kind of singer do you want to be?C: I want to be a nun who sings, that’s all.A: Well please continue to keep singing then, we love hearing you.C: My singing is all thanks to God, so I will keep going for as long as I have his blessing to do so.A: Thank you very much. We’re looking forward to hearing you more.C: Thank you.

25:11A: That’s the end of the questions, but now we’d like
to have a “mini confessional,” where Sister Cristina can respond to
problems given to us on Twitter and from the audience. Our first
question is: “What should I do when I’m feeling depressed or
frustrated?”C: When I’m feeling down, I know that my whole body is down.
I’m looking down, I feel bad inside, so what I try to do is look forward
instead. I recommend looking up, keep walking forward, and trying to
change your perspective a bit.A: Thank you. Our next question: “My father recently passed away and I can’t get over it. What should I do?”C: That is certainly a difficult time to go through. But
thinking about it another way, your father is now at peace in Heaven.
Like I said before, it might be best to try not to look down and focus
on your own problems, but perhaps look around at the problems of others
around you. Trying to help them and making them feel better will help
you feel better as well.A: Thank you. Next question: “No matter what I do, I can’t stop eating chips before I go to bed. What should I do?”C: Maybe you should try eating something less oily than chips,
like vegetables perhaps. If you eat oily things before bed then you
probably won’t sleep well, and since I don’t think you want that, focus
on being healthy instead. If you really want to eat those chips, then
maybe enjoy them during lunch instead.A: I think you’re giving the people who asked these questions a lot to think about! By the way, do you eat chips?
C: At the order we make lots of food with potatoes – boiled, fried – so I’m a fan of potatoes in all forms.

32:00A: All right, last question: “I have a 20-year-old son
obsessed with anime and not interested in girls. I’m worry I won’t have
any grandchildren. What can I do to get him interested in women?”C: There’s no need to worry. He’s only 20, so he still has
plenty of time. I think that love is something that can come even if
you’re not out actively looking for it.A: Ah, what great answers. Thank you so much everyone
who shared their troubles with us, and thank you Sister Cristina for
taking the time to answer them.C: Thank you.

45:25A: Thank you very much. So everyone, what did you think
of Sister Cristina’s live concert? Thank you for such wonderful music!
Would you like to say something at the end here?C: I feel very privileged to be able to come to Japan, and I’m
very happy to have met you all here today. It has been a wonderful
experience. Thank you all very much.A: Thank you! Let’s give her a round of applause. One more time, that was Sister Cristina!C: Thank you very much. Bye bye!

Cruz has said that during the time he was abused, Karadima and Barros behaved intimately with one another in his presence.

"I saw Karadima and Juan Barros kissing and touching each other. The groping generally came from Karadima touching Barros' genitals," Cruz said in a January letter to Monsignor Ivo Scapolo, the papal nuncio in Chile. Cruz provided a copy of the letter to the AP.

Despite Francis' pledge to have no tolerance for abuse by priests, James Hamilton, another victim of Karadima's, said the appointment demonstrates to him that the church "had not changed."

Hamilton, now a 49-year-old doctor, said Barros enjoyed watching Karadima commit the abuse.

Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? And he shall grow up as a tender plant before him, and as a root out of a thirsty ground: there is no beauty in him, nor comeliness: and we have seen him, and there was no sightliness, that we should be desirous of him: Despised, and the most abject of men, a man of sorrows, and acquainted with infirmity: and his look was as it were hidden and despised, whereupon we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our infirmities and carried our sorrows: and we have thought him as it were a leper, and as one struck by God and afflicted. But he was wounded for our iniquities, he was bruised for our sins: the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and by his bruises we are healed.

All we like sheep have gone astray, every one hath turned aside into his own way: and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was offered because it was his own will, and he opened not his mouth: he shall be led as a sheep to the slaughter, and shall be dumb as a lamb before his shearer, and he shall not open his mouth. He was taken away from distress, and from judgment: who shall declare his generation? because he is cut off out of the land of the living: for the wickedness of my people have I struck him. And he shall give the ungodly for his burial, and the rich for his death: because he hath done no iniquity, neither was there deceit in his mouth. And the Lord was pleased to bruise him in infirmity: if he shall lay down his life for sin, he shall see a long-lived seed, and the will of the Lord shall be prosperous in his hand.

Because his soul hath laboured, he shall see and be filled: by his knowledge shall this my just servant justify many, and he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore will I distribute to him very many, and he shall divide the spoils of the strong, because he hath delivered his soul unto death, and was reputed with the wicked: and he hath borne the sins of many, and hath prayed for the transgressors.
